5-6 pm UTC (Noon – 1 pm CDT)
Join us on Wednesday, October 26th at Noon Central Daylight Time (5 pm UTC), for a talk by Dr. Núria Galiana Ibáñez. Dr. Ibáñez studied environmental sciences at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, where she also obtained her master’s degree in Terrestrial Ecology and Biodiversity Management. In her PhD thesis she focused on the integration of spatial and biogeographical processes into species interaction network research. Aside from the integration between biogeography, spatial processes and species interaction networks, she has been interested in the effects of different types of perturbations driven by global change on community structure and its stability, topics that she has been developing during her postdoc experiences. She is currently a Marie Curie fellow at the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid working in Miguel Araujo’s lab where we try to disentangle the importance of species interactions for their range size. Her research approach combines theory development and analyses of large empirical datasets to answer ecological and biogeographical questions.
